Maintenance
ENGINE COOLANT
Changing the engine oil and filter
The high-pressure cooling system has a
reservoir filled with year-round antifreeze
coolant. The reservoir is filled at the fac-
tory.
WARNING
We recommend that the engine oil and
filter be replaced by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
Prolonged and repeated contact
with used engine oils may result in
serious skin disorders including
dermatitis and cancer. Avoid con-
tact with skin as far as possible and
always wash thoroughly after any
contact. Keep used oils out of
reach of children. It is illegal to pol-
lute drains, water courses and soil.
Use only authorised waste collec-
tion facilities including civic ameni-
ty sites and garages for the dispos-
al of used oil and oil filters. If in
doubt, contact the local authority
for disposal instructions.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant concentration level at least once
a year, at the beginning of the winter sea-
son, and before travelling to a colder cli-
mate.

WARNING
Removing radiator
cap
•
•
Never attempt to remove the radi-
ator cap whilst the engine is
operating or hot. Doing so might
lead
to cooling system and
engine damage and could result
in serious personal injury from
escaping hot coolant or steam.
Turn the engine off and wait until
it cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the radiator cap.
Wrap a thick towel around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
the first stop.
